#sleeplessnight
The whole turbulence is in the middle of sleep now, The insane beggar has fallen asleep now, The freaking ashtray has no more aroma at the painting shutter. The night is walking around the city, Crawling through the corridor, dining, Above, through the ****** of roofless, walking tiredly, Walking beholden But the time is not much left now Glimpy orange at the yarn corner At the fume of racing yard Yes, The whole eyes wait for this horizon Oh darling Take off your clothes I am still awake for you.. a void half is empty on my bedsheet Come close and sleep me...

Anxiety and Empathy
I sat by the window, Opposite to trees. My head was aching For I had a sleepless night. The sun shined, On the broken windowpane. The yellow leaves were shedding Off their companions. The cold breeze slipped through the broken windowpane And whispered something in my ears. It calmed my mind And my pain vanished. The door, in the room, opened And she entered. Everyone stood up, I didn't.

Broken windowpane
River banks beach sands muddy waters loud laughs all the things I think about when I'm awake at night Rhyming words fairy tales true stories laugh lines all the things I think about when I'm daydreaming in class Once in a while, my thoughts collide the common thread, is you by my side

All the things (I think about)
That jazzy voice you handle from your lips Is to be handled carefully. Well, it happened already You took away every bit of somnolence from me Suddenly emptied me, left me as a cunning child Naughty enough to deprive himself of a night lavish with dreams, To escape the sleep routine under the bed sheets. And then your phonecall, Breaking fragile silence like a hammer smashing glass, I followed you beyond the ringing, Discovered a trembling annoying voice. You crafty devil, you planned my unsleeping all along, Filling my ear with problems of all kinds and sorts And the endless unsatisfactions of a life you never lived as yours. So tired as hell, the phone hitting the wall, Your voice remains, some sort of restlessness Invades me and keeps me going all night long. I shave, I’ve got but two hours before all cuts are healed I put my sleep back together Shard by shard, Rebuild its slow glassy reflection. My sleep is after all A mirror which doesn’t often work. The daylight knocks already The nighttime fades behind me No sleep tonight for poor devils or for me, No sleep tonight at all.

Nightburden
Alone I lie awake, sitting in an empty room. Another long night.
